Black Friday and Cyber Monday are two of the biggest days for retail in the United States. Whether you’re looking for the perfect dog toy or stocking up on pet supplies for the winter, there will be a multitude of bargains available. You will find savings online and in stores throughout the Thanksgiving weekend and beyond! Here are details on the deals we’ve found so far.

From Wednesday, November 26, through the end of Cyber Monday, Doctors Foster and Smith, a pet-supply retailer owned by veterinarians, is offering site-wide discounts of up to 40 percent. Specific bargains to look out for:

Free shipping on orders totaling more than $49, with limited restrictions.

Don’t miss: Does your dog prefer the comfort of your couch to the dog bed you bought specifically for him during the last holiday season? Tired of taking a lint roller or vacuum cleaner to the sofa every week? You might take a look at the Doctors Foster and Smith furniture throws. They are designed to be a magnet for pet hair and are machine washable!

Lazybonezz was founded and is still run by a mother-daughter team. They offer an assortment of premium and designer products for dogs who enjoy being pampered. A percentage of every sale is donated to the Humane Society of New York.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are just two chances for you to get phenomenal deals for all of your dog’s needs. Small Business Saturday falls on November 29. It encourages us to remember that local independent pet stores depend on our patronage!

North Carolina’s Unleashed: The Dog & Cat Store, for instance, began as a pop-up shop at the state fair in 2007, and through dedication and community support it now has five locations! For Small Business Saturday, any purchase of $20 or more at any Unleashed store will get you a free holiday squeak toy!
